Default 2013 Maps

I have held off, for whatever reason, not upgrading my maps in my '06. I was fine without and knew where I was basically going. But now with all the road construction over the last couple of years I feel it is time to upgrade.

I know that they are typically released in the fall of year, but can anyone narrow it down to a month? At this point I would rather wait for the 2013 instead of buying the 2012.

Thanks

I'm in the same boat but I'm wondering it the 2013 update will be in usb or disc. I want the disc.

Updated maps are usually released around November.

04-09 GX will always use DVD disc for maps.

Yup, you need 2013 maps for whatever year your GX is, the navi systems changed within the 1st gen GX's.

Thanks.

I checked on every year last week and didn't see it, now I see they've put it beside all of the 2012 discs. Why would anyone want to buy a 2012 disc when they're the exact same price as the 2013 discs?

I cant figure that myself. They even give you a rebate if you return old disk. What can they do with it. Sell it used on ebay ??
